No worries for Italy ahead of opener

Italy coach Giovanni Trapattoni has no injury concerns ahead of his team’s opening European 2004 game against Denmark in Guimaraes on Monday.

Lazio midfielder Stefano Fiore returned to training earlier this week after being sidelined for two weeks with a problematic thigh.

And Roma defender Christian Panucci, who had been struggling with an Achilles tendon injury, was able to resume training on Wednesday.

The Azzurri squad have only held three light training sessions in the past three days with Trapattoni opting to avoid any late surprises prior to their first encounter.

Juventus goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon will make his debut in the European tournament having missed the finals four years ago due to a hand injury.

Italy (probable team): Buffon, Nesta, Panucci, Cannavaro (capt), Zambrotta, Perrotta, Zannetti, Camoranesi, Totti, Del Piero, Vieri.
